you are right, the validator is not called.
i added it in my Zend_Form class
$this->broken = new Zend_Form_Element_Text("broken");
$this->broken->addValidator(new Lab_Validator_LessThanBalance());
if i do a
$v = new Lab_Validator_LessThanBalance();
$v->isValid("test");
it ran but i got
Exception information:
